It's The Coverup, And Also the Non-Coverup

An upstate New York district attorney, Mark Suben, has given up denying that, yes indeed, he did appear in some porno films in the seventies. First elected in 2008, Suben denied porn film rumors that surfaced during this year's campaign, but after his reelection admitted that he had appeared in porn films under his name and the pseudonym Gus Thomas while acting in New York City in the '70s. A YouTube video posted anonymously after the election showed film clips of Suben from the seventies. Suben's campaign website says he practiced for Wall Street law firms and as an assistant district attorney in the Bronx before returning home to central New York to launch his prosecutorial career there.
